Hi, Just want to ask on how to check and change the MTU size of the nodes from 1500 to 9000? I need to match the MTU size of some cluster nodes which has 1500 to the others with 9000 because they are inconsistent. Thanks (1 Reply)

ipw - Intel Pro. Wireless 802.11b IPW2100B driver
DESCRIPTION
The ipw 802.11b wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting the Data Link Provider
Interface, dlpi(7P), on Intel Pro Wireless 2100B chipset-based wireless NIC's. Driver functions include controller initialization, wire-
less 802.11b infrastructure network connection, WEP, frame transmit and receive and promiscuous support.
DRIVER CONFIGURATION
The ipw driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbits/sec.
The ipw driver supports only BSS networks (also known as "ap" or "infrastructure" networks) and the "open" ("open-system") or "shared sys-
tem" authentication. Only WEP encryption is currently supported. You perform configuration and administration tasks using the dladm(1M) and
wificonfig(1M) utilities.
